The Grammy award winning Prince of Motown Marvin Gaye was groundbreaking in every sense of the word. Songs range from sweet love songs to full torch songs to social justice anthems that are often imitated, but never duplicated.

Once again we are doing a scripted summer show with one of my personal favorite musicals. We will be doing a mix of songs from the stage show and the movie. This show will be a blast for all ability levels, but be prepared for a few extra rehearsals as we will need to do a couple read throughs as well.
Thomas Earl Petty was a great American songwriter. Starting in the late 70’s Tom Petty’s music dominated airwaves with some of the best sing-along songs ever. The Heartbreakers, Traveling Wilburys and solo works will all be included. All skill levels welcome.
